It wasn't for mocking the President. It was knowingly lying about at a catastrophic event which is a violation of FCC rules. IIUC it was because Kimmel said in more words that the coward that murdered Charlie Kirk was MAGA. Which is false and Kimmel knew it.

This is simply not true. And even if it were, far worse things have been said without complaints on channels aligned with MAGA for years, so it cannot be a sound foundation for such a sudden and drastic action.
